Haber's discovery was significant and important at the time as it established a clear and industrial method of forming ammonia, rather than having to rely on guano extracts (bird droppings) from Chile. When Germany wanted to engage in war, the allies of Chile, being the British, cut off the guano supply to Germany, preventing them from producing ammonia to be used as explosives. Germany was desperate and therefore prompted scientists to industrially produce ammonia. Fritz Haber produced ammonia after countless experiments of changing and appropriating conditions and catalysts which was significant at the time as it not only allowed Germany to continue its war efforts, but prevent the country from dying from starvation as ammonia is used as fertilizer to grow crops. Without ammonia, crops would not adequately grow and produce sustainable food yield, leaving a nation in starvation.Tbh, no one else is gonna help lolol
Carl Bosch, was the man who produced ammonia on an industrial scale.
Ironically, Haber himself was a Jew. He killed himself.
Do you think Haber's discovery was beneficial or pure evil? <---- Something i pulled out of my a**
